Last week, Biggie, the voice and authority of the BBMzansi house put all of the contestants up for eviction, sparing only the Head of House Mich and Siphosethu Mxunyelwa, who both had immunity.
Big Brother, like many other reality shows can be used as a great launch pad for greater careers in the local showbiz scene.
Past contestants have gone on to get reality shows, feature in a series, release music, or become leads in local cinema.
Former Big Brother contestant and Showmax Adulting star Luthando ‘BU’ Mthembu, currently portraying the popular role of Vuyani is considered a well-sought after actor and musician after capitalising on the stardom the reality show afforded him.
Housemates can take full advantage of the 24-hour surveillance and bring forward their A-game when it comes to fashion and hidden talents.
Over the last two weeks, one housemate stood out for us – not only because of how she plays the game, but also her fashion sense.
Last week social media debated about their favourites and 22-year-old Liyema ‘Liema’ Phantsi and hostess, Zee (Zintle Mofokeng) seemed to come out tops.

Already dubbed the natural beauty in the house, the 22-year-old student, bartender, singer, and podcaster hails from Qonce in the Eastern Cape Province.
Describing her game play strategy, she says: “I’m a natural flirt. A lot of people like to think I’m flirting with them, so I think that will be very problematic.”
However, she wants to advocate and highlight mental health awareness when out of the house as it is a passionate cause for her.
Liyema wears a light white and yellow cropped jersey with low-rise light blue wide-leg jeans. Her shoes are this season’s must-have item, a pair of comfy Crocs worn plain or with stickies for that extra amount of ‘shoe rebellion’. Crocs will make any outfit look alternative.
Her hair is styled in a natural pixie cut with blonde to orange highlights. The pixie cut is an easy-to-maintain summer style that can be styled to suit any outfit. It just requires mousse in the morning to shape it into place.
Liema’s flirtatious side clearly shows as she strikes a sultry pose in a strappy sparkly purple dress in a post where he’s seen performing on a stage.
She accessorised her outfit with pink chain earrings and purple diamante heels. Her hair is worn in thick faux blond dreadlocks in a high bun on top of her head and her sides are cropped down in a mohawk style.
If there’s one thing she exudes it’s a level of versatility.
Carrying her current signature hairstyle, black faux dreads, Liema models in a woven, patterned bikini top and matching skirt for an outside photoshoot, titled ‘in my ELEMENT part 1‘.
She accessorized the outfit with colourful drop earrings and bracelets that carry the colours of the outfit
It appears the sky’s the limit when it comes to the reality show star and hopefully, she will be translating some of her Instagram fashion looks to the BBMzansi house.
